Description Here another picture of the spiderweb braiding. (Designed myself).
The model is me. a close friendly person kindly took the pic for me. I repainted a big part and fused it together with the photograph. 
I hope I succeded, well, I was wondering if I should consider this mature, I wouldn't really, but please tell me if you do and I will change the rating!


I like this shot because it shows the webbing so well. I heavily edited this in GIMP. that means:
-I completely replaced the background.
-I started fusing the portrait and background together.
-Repainted the lower part of my back completely, though tried to keep the hair as original as possible. The repainting includes the bra region, cause I don't do nude pictures.
- the colours for the background were not taken from skin but from a major part of the original(annoying) background and is actually the colour of the building i stood before
-I tried to make it look appealing, putting the braids in center.

Other shots of this braid are here, you can see my digital editing improving tons

And now as a final, a special thanks goes to Chuckle-Huck  who helped me edit some things I couldn't figure out.

This turned out really well Luna! Your hair is definitely the focus! I like the pattern it creates! Well done! It's like one of my "doodle drawings". xjames7.deviantart.com/gallery…

Thank you It is quite the symmetrical pattern but the hair gives it a very soft note to it and yeah, you're right about the doodle relations

I'm not sure what I'm looking at...is the hair from one of your previous photos, from a new photo, or is it edited?
Whatever it is, it does do a great job of focusing the picture on the design, more so than the previous pictures.

ehm. Well, it's a new photo, but of the same braid style. I've repainted the background completely, edited some stuff and so on. I didn't actually do much on the hair, it's more that I'm a bit annoyed at not being able to keep the little hairs sticking out naturally. I've had to cover a big part of that because of the background, but I'm getting better.
Yes, thank you. I agree. This one shows the webbing really well since there is no clothing underground to distract. I'm really happy how it turned out
Thank you
